If you know who you are than you will know which car you want.
Let me understand what you're saying........

If you want something with luxury, comfort, and performance that means you have a small "Dink".......

And if you like the M3 you are a poser.

That may have been one of the dumbest posts i've read in a long time.

Cheers

Do they act as a replacement for your ***** or just a place for you to use them to their good old full potential.

Congrats btw, I'm assuming you mean the march we just passed .

It's just an opinion. Relax and don't feel threatened by it. Most of the people that I have come across that buy these type of cars are posers that require material assistance to attract women. Of course not all of them are like that. I was just being sarcastic about the "dink" part.

I've driven the E46 M3 and it did nothing to inspire me to own one.

I've driven an E46 M3, actually, two, one in SMG and one in manual six speed. They are very nice cars, but I'd have to shy away from them after seeing what the repair bills are like. I was in the same boat, but with my bikes. I had a Ducati, thinking to my self "how bad can it be, so what if the filters are just a bit more?" After spending $2400 on simple servicing, servicing that a normal person can not do because they require special tools, computers, etc. I eventually sold the headache and bought a Yamaha... the point is, buying the car is one thing, but being able to afford the "lifestyle" that comes along with it is a different story. You can never compare these two very different cars without understanding the baggage it comes along with.

The internet is a funny place. One of the large reasons these arguements arise is because sarcasm is hard to detect when reading it on a computer screen.

It is what it is.

I remember seeing another post on here about BMW's
BMW=Broke my wallet.

It is going to be your choice in the end.I have heard that it does cost quite a bit to maintain a BMW.

Yes, most people forget about the maintenance. Just remember to account for insurance, maintenance, gas, and any other extra expenses associated with the car. Even though you can afford the car, you might find yourself hoarding your paycheck because your car's extra costs takes a lot out of your wallet.

Yeah, using sarcasm on the internet is retarded, my bad. It's almost impossible to detect unless you are familiar with the person you're typing to.

The Evo is also expensive to maintain but not as bad as BMW I'm sure of. It sounds like this guy just wants a quick stock car. Chevrolet C5 Z06 might also be something worth looking at as well as an 03-04 Terminator and a Jeep GC SRT8
